The AI boom isn’t just reshaping tech—it’s redefining the energy grid.

As data center demand skyrockets, clean energy providers are scrambling to keep up with unprecedented power needs, speed requirements, and reliability expectations. In this special live panel, hosted by Jessica Fishman of Kiterocket, we hear directly from leaders at Equinix, Clayco, QTS, and MGM Transformer—key players shaping the future of power-hungry infrastructure.

From fuel cells as primary power sources to grid-forming transformers and liquid-cooled AI campuses, this conversation dives deep into what’s working, what’s failing, and what’s coming next at the intersection of data, power, and renewables.

🔍 You’ll learn:

🔹 How the AI arms race is driving data center energy innovation

🔹 Why grid constraints are forcing new collaboration models

🔹 What roles geothermal, hydrogen, and district energy loops might play

🔹 Why the energy transition may stall without workforce and regulatory breakthroughs

If you work in clean energy, utilities, or digital infrastructure, this episode offers a front-row seat to one of the most urgent—and opportunity-rich—conversations happening today.
